Engineered by Vespa for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2024 Vespa 946 Dragon pairs a 155 cc (9.5 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 805 mm (31.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance. The 8-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.01 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 398 km (247 miles) between fill-ups.
